stuart: friday morning, time for day in. >> thank you. a battle royale brewing over who will replace ben bernanke. while mr. summers has made some enemies on capitol hill. steve : s ac capital pleading not guilty. is this indictment enough to put this firm out of business? honeywell now call-up in the latest problems for the dream liner. japan's ana airlines saying two of its streamliners have wiring problems around the locater beacon. and wolverine this weekend, the debut could turn the tide in a multimillion dollar flop for the box office, 20th-century fox is making on that dreamboat. those stories and so much more coming up this hour on markets now. ♪ connell: well, the markets
11:01 am
suddenly getting hammered. dagen: wolverine was firm red dawn just for movie buffs. connell:-will be along. and larry summers, the next fed chairman kontakion life of its own. that will be interesting. dagen: to make the decision by having a math or science contest between the two. would that be fun? will talk about all of it. connell: first, let's go to nicole. stocks now. we are getting hit pretty hard. >> exhilaration to the downside. the dollar has been weaker, but you are seeing selling going forward. a few of earnings. confidence numbers, consumer sentiment came in. that was better than expected, but it looks like we are ramming natalie get people deciding to take profits. i was talking earlier this week, also ben willis. there were just talking about the fact that we have run up four straight weeks in a row, and there are people who want to just take their days of the
11:02 am
table. fed week, a lot to go on. but this week it looks like we will have our first losing week for the dow and the s&p after four straight weeks of gains. all 30 dow components have down arrows led by coca-cola, american express, hewlett-packard. connell: all right. dagen: more talks that president of all might be leaning toward nominating one of his top aides as other reserve chairman. we talked about larry summers, but we have some democratic senators stepping up and saying, wait a minute. janet is a lady for the job. connell: rich edson is on it from d.c. it's just put a statement on that. >> we are hearing now, senior administration officials are saying the president is not near making a choice of who he will select as the next batter reserve chairman. he is not coming out with menominee any time soon. this is all in the context of some reporting of the last couple of weeks that larry
11:03 am
summers, former economic adviser was going to be the president's choice or at least was at the top of the list. not necessarily going to be the choice, but the president was leaning toward mr. summers. this begs the question, what about the vice chair janet yellen. as you mentioned, there is this effort going around led by the senator of ohio, a democrat, that basically the preference among a number of senior senate democrats in the senate is to have janet be the chair. the "wall street journal" is reporting that the letter does not necessarily say that larry summers would be a poor choice, but the journal also reports that senator harkin from iowa says that there are a number of senate democrats to have problems with larry summers views on regulations. the house minority leader came out yesterday saying that she supports jennet. it's early on in this process you start to see this news sort of leading the pack. then all a sudden a number of
11:04 am
key democrats start coming out sank larry summers as our guide. moving forward on this, it becomes important because any one chosen to be the next fed chairman has to go through a senate confirmation process, go to the senate banking committee. the fed chair terms to ben bernanke ends at the end of this year, january 301st. back to you. connell: a lot of fun. thank you. the -- key democrats and a group bloggers. dagen: well, we will talk about this. chief portfolio strategist. nationally syndicated columnist and fox news contributor. i'm going to start with you because you're here in studio. one of the problems would be his personality that he is not a man of compromise. he likes historic plea to belittle people who work for him. that is not the makings of a fed chairman. >> i think you're right about that. he is a bull in a china shop and as is very brash and aggressive
11:05 am
terminology that may suggest does not play well with others. the fed is an organization that likes to build consensus around whenever its policies are. that may be something that would be better. in terms of policy there would not be a very big difference in terms of personality. very strange in some ways that the white house is even floridian is as a trial balloon because threes as he talked about conservatives about like him. a reference of the problems he has had with women's groups. but -- and liberals like him. that's from talking about the bloggers. a huffington post business section. everyone is yelling. is it wall street's? would it be the wall street crowd that would be pleased? >> i'm not sure what the source of the original was that actually said that larry summers would even be considered. i'm curious about the credibility of the source. considering who i would prefer between the two, it's almost
11:06 am
irrelevant you would prefer, but i think that she has more of the credentials, the monetary and economic background. though he is a brilliant individual, he is a very polarizing figure and a previous leaders. i don't know if this would be necessarily within his core competency to be the chairman of the federal reserve. >> sixteen women who are democrats and the senate in terms of confirmation that would be a problem. his issue with women as related to this talky gave once when he was talking about female professors and science and his comments, not to every "demand rehash them, but they offended women. somehow lesser and he made an excuse for them. that is going to get in his wake. are with the white house pick a fight like that? >> i think that raises a very good point. obama may decide, why not appoint the first female head of the fed. that is certainly very good politically in terms of partisan
11:07 am
politics and god knows everything that this white house -- dagen: to easier to picker than summer's. >> in terms of policy, they're both dedicated to the idea that the fed should be an economist. he believes in three branches of government cannot afford. i think that they believe in the fed as a fourth branch of government that is this economid redistributes. connell: disqualified. you disagree with the policies. >> qualified in terms of being an economist in the book that both bring to this job the idea that the fed should be active, interventionist, not making it -- maintaining a stable price level which is much more appropriate activity. dagen: how worried are you about inflation at this point? would you ever expect the next four reserve chairman to have policies that are any different from what we see right now? >> i would seek continuity of policy regardless of who is appointed chair and whether it is ben bernanke, janet yellen, larry summers, were ever you
11:08 am
want to throw out there. i don't really anticipate that we are going to have any sort of reduction in the accommodation of the fed, there bias towards easing. it is just easier to do that. i think it is more politically popular to ease your weather is the red deer not. not that concerned about inflation because we're just not seeing a lot of it in the data. most of the inflation taking place is in asset prices, so it is not actually resulting in higher consumer prices or wages. so the fed does have additional scope to do more easing if they are inclined to do so. connell: a special view here. shaking his head. >> i agree with the other guest. we have not seen a lot of ablation. the reason is very little velocity of money. economic growth has been low enough that this money has been on the sidelines. once that money comes back to my think it's entirely possible the you will have inflation taken. and then what will the fed do?
11:09 am
we raise interest rates. the slowdown whatever economic growth you get. dagen: what? >> you're absolutely right. the velocity is low, but they can also manage it. the idea that it is there and actually has to eventually go in inflation is somewhat of a misunderstanding of the various tools of the fed's disposal. a october 2008, there were able to raise the interest. they can actually control the flow of money into the economy to be taken basically contain if they want to, and i think that there will. dagen: it is not germany where there were actually printing money. connell: create a chide money -- is adding close to having the same effect. right now sitting on bank balance sheets.
11:10 am
it's a completely different mechanism. connell: maybe we can all agree hilary somers will be the next fed chairman. >> i think we can agree on that. connell: thank you very much. always good to have the. more problems believe it or not with the dream liner. japan saying that it found damage to the battery wiring on 2787 locator beacons. the company inspected the device is after they were identified as the likely cause of the far. you remember the ethiopian airlines flight. so they sent the begins back to the manufacturer, honeywell, to be checked out. we take a look at the stock. both boeing and honeywell are down, along with the rest of the market today. dagen: now on to the latest from that southwest airlines plane that made that horrid landing earlier this week at new york's laguardia airport. investigators now say that the plane's front nosewheel

connell: the world arena opening this weekend. we have had really major megaflops neck, mayor budget films coming out. this breaks it because it could come out and maybe reagan and to $80 million for the weekend. that would be one of the biggest openers of the entire season. it is certainly a welcome given that hollywood has been getting knocked around. 3900 u.s. theaters, 62 international markets all at once which is hard to pull off. a sibling is doing it. 120 million to make. no x-men in the title. breaking out on its own. dagen: the last one, x-men origins. >> for flux combines that costs 685 million to make. there you go. lone ranger.

five i am dennis kneale. cheryl: i am cheryl casone. there will probably be no decision on the fed chairman until this fall. there is already a stir on who the president will choose.
12:00 pm
dennis: a new fox investigation. a huge concern for corporate america. john roberts will have a special report for us this hour. cheryl: honeywell. two of the tree of minors have wiring problems. dennis: the summertime showdown. we narrowed the field on the way to choosing this summer's top stock picker. top of the hour now. we have nicole petallides at the new york stock exchange. nicole: you do see that dow down nearly 110 points. the lowest point today was 150 points. i have been chatting with the traders. all 30 dow components have been lower.
12:01 pm
ultimately, the feeling here on wall street is that people are getting out. achieving profits. you can see it from such her to suck her. broad-based selling. this is a bigger picture. what we are seeing here today is selling across the board. down 107 points. back to you. cheryl: nicole petallides. thank you very much. we probably will not get a decision until the fall, but the debate continues to grow over who will run the federal reserve once burning kiwis. there are hints that the president may be picking larry summers.
12:02 pm
larry summers, not a top name that we have heard bantered about. >> i do think that those who think that summers will make a comeback, the president seems to like to surround himself with ex- colleagues and friends. there is no question that he likes summers. they are politicizing this chairman nomination pretty early. cheryl: certainly pretty early. janet yellen has been a big part of this, quantitative easing. stocks keep hitting new highs. why not go for a janet yellen? is president obama tried to kill the market with this choice of summers?
12:03 pm
>> i still think that she is the odds on favorite. larry summers really does not like financial regulation. the bond vigilantes, they do not like someone considering an inflation dove. janet likes quantitative easing. i think janet yellin will be picked. i am not sure that the markets will necessarily like that. >> i think that janet yellen will come out on top. she has been a little more dovish. she has voted with the majority. i think she has been a great number two. she is well thought of by her peers. again, i think this is a moment where the president can really make a mark on the fed.
12:04 pm
cheryl: that has to be addressed. the first time we would have a woman running the federal reserve. we still have not had a woman as president. there are a lot of issues when it comes to women. let's talk about his time at harvard, for example. >> deregulation, the removal of glass-steagall, a lot of people blame it on those moves. it was a major contributing factor. that would be a contentious point moving forward. they want to see janet yellen. we still think that it sounds like today she is the odds on favorite. is there a dark horse that could overtake her?
12:05 pm
>> certainly, probably the biggest surprise would be if chairman bernanke is reappointed and if he actually wanted the job. cheryl: he looks pretty bored on capitol hill. go ahead. >> timothy geithner is certainly another name. i think that janet yellen and larry summers are certainly the front runners. cheryl: what happens with the markets and quantitative easing and tapering? we have had this discussion before. could this back drop upset what the market is expecting in the next three to four months? >> along those lines, i think we are in unchartered territory.
12:06 pm
they have to pull back. how that is done is really going to, in a large part, to determine the fate of many markets. no candidate has experience in pulling back. i do like the idea of the number two. cheryl: janet yellen, at least she would be pushing for employment. i cannot see larry summers being the guy pushing for employment. >> absolutely. clearly, janet yellen will push more of the democratic issues. larry summers, he will be on the office side of that. cheryl: we need jobs. we need jobs in this country. we will leave it here for now. you will both be back later in the hour.

12:47 pm
that always get revised depending which way the wind is blowing. quite frankly it is the slower time as you know but the earnings should be the focus that are driving the thought process behind people investing and continue to add that train of thought. dennis: seems wall street is more intent on revenue growth because companies have cut those costs and at some point you want to see demand and revenue rise. >> you briig up a good point. if you look at the guidance, guidance has been pretty positive and basing it on that if they can deliver on guidance from q3 and certainly cute 4, we will be very impressed. dennis: looking for a better second half, thank you very much. cheryl: look at dorian, the fourth atlantic tropical storm of the season as a heads toward
